“Your depression is connected to your insolence
and refusal to praise. Whoever feels himself walking
on the path, and refuses to praise--that man or woman
steals from others every day--is a shoplifter!

The sun goes out whenever the cloud of not-praising comes.
The moment the foolish angel felt insolent, he heard the door close.”
